The 2015 NBA Draft Thread: Draft Day Is Here

[georgescorewell]

I'm cool with Kaminsky. Our front court is shaping up pretty nice if we can just stay healthy.

Now I'm worried about the guard play with Henderson out.

the best Jalen has looked on tv is with DWade......I knew he wouldn't work well w/ the crew he had last night

Houston had a huge draft, definitely put them in the win category.

It was a solid night, but not huge.

The Montrezl pick was great great value. They really screwed up with the Dekker pick.

Not that Dekker can't be good. He just wasn't the right fit.

Needed a PG more than SF. And plenty of solid PGs left. Including Tyus Jones who was a perfect fit.

Now they kind of box themselves in having to keep Pat Bev, who may get a great offer early that prevents Rockets from making other moves.


Or if they let Bev go, and chase Aldridge. They will have trouble with guards all throughout the playoffs.

There's no reason he couldn't prove himself in Summer League. Tons of second rounders won't be signed anyway

76ers man

They really had odd luck with there Draft Spot the past 2 years

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

95% of your post tonight were about the Celtics n Danny Ainge

Why are you so mad?? Did Danny steal your teams future draft picks too

Why would I be mad? Is that a joke? . Celtics are going nowhere. I've been on the ainge slander bus with no pit stops, last night was just a victory lap

its true nothing really went our way honestly. Its just crazy we got 3 bigs who were in talks of being the #1 player picked in 3 years

Didn't realize Trez fell to Houston in the second round :x

Ya know....once I get past the depression of us not getting Russell/still not having any guards I guess Okafor/Noel/Embiid/Saric will be a hell of a platoon if we plan to keep all four. Any guards should want to play with that group.

Respect that tweet. Both genuine and funny, thumbs up.

 Jahlil Okafor scored the most post-up points in a season by any major conference player in the last 9 seasons.

Getting Dekker at 18 was a great move for them. Some times you gotta take the best player on the board and not worry about your needs. He can be used as an asset later on if anything.

They managed to make the WCF without a legit PG, yes they could use some depth but I'm pretty sure they will address that in free agency. To me, it seems like they would prefer someone who can come in and start at PG opposed to developing one.
